I know I don't post here often but I was hoping you guys could help......

My uncle whom I'm very close to is laying in an ICU bed right now, not able to walk and had to have emergency surgery yesterday. He has a tumor wrapped AROUND his spine and it is growing from the INSIDE of the bone, the doctors don't know if it is cancer or not yet. There also might be another tumor on his side as well. We're hoping for the best, but my family has a long history of cancer

He's only 44 years old and has 5 kids. Ranging from ages 21 to 14. I spent most of my childhood living at his house during the summers, and he's like a father figure to me and one of the only men to be a constant in my life, seeing how my real dad was never around.

Please guys my family could really use your prayers right now more the anything.

No one ever really knows "the right thing to say" so just BE there as much as you can, stay calm, put a smile on your face and reminisce with him every once in awhile about how happy he made your childhood.
